This is related to the code you imported. There was something in it which forced Tidy to add this to everything, or it was there to begin with. It's just a namespace declaration, feel free to ignore/delete it.

Note that when you create a new paragraph in the Book View by pressing ENTER, the attributes from the <p> you were in are copied over to the new <p>.

You'll have to ask the creators of those other Rendering Systems. Although Calibre's presentation should be fairly close to Sigil's; they both use the same underlying engine (QtWebkit).

This was an ePub file exported directly from InDesign. I didn't make any changes with Sigil.

When I look at the the HTML code in Dreamweaver, I see this code (which is free from the xmlns:xml="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace">) for the text:

<p class="sidebar-quote" xml:lang="en-us">I’m a painter. What do I have to know about words and <span class="no-style-override-1">writing</span>? </p>
